Leonato

Age 3 · 9-9

9-34

Jack Callan 14%

George Boughey 18%

9-9

11/1 4/1 11/1

Fourth beaten 13 lengths at Chepstow on latest outing, a modest return, and needs to find considerably more over today's longer trip; bred to get the distance and acts on AW. Currently the bottom-rated runner here — a place effort would be a step forward.

AI verdict

Leonato's poor form of 9-34, a low Saturday Rating of 64, and 13/2 odds suggest limited winning prospects.

Kelly Burn

Age 3 · 9-6

-35215

Cieren Fallon 18%

James Fanshawe 18%

9-6

3/1 3/1 11/4

Took a maiden at Wolverhampton two starts ago, though that was on AW and she was disappointing last time when beaten over 7 lengths at the same mark today. Best form is on the all-weather and the step to turf needs to be proven; needs to recapture her earlier form to be competitive.

AI verdict

Kelly Burn's consistent form of -35215 and competitive 3/1 odds support a mid-tier 3/5 rating, offset by a hefty 9-6 weight.

Mountbatten

Age 3 · 9-3

877-1

Stevie Donohoe 12%

Sir Mark Prescott Bt 19%

9-3

4/6 8/11 2/3

Travelled smoothly through the gears last time to land a handicap by 5 lengths at Southwell, a performance well above anything he had shown before; has the scope for further progress and should stay this longer trip well. Our top-rated runner here — a 6lb higher mark is manageable if he builds on that eye-catching step forward.

AI verdict

Mountbatten's recent win in form (877-1) is offset by a hefty 9-3 weight and short 8/11 odds that leave little value margin.

Queen Of Astolat

Age 3 · 8-8

578-63

Saffie Osborne 14%

Charlie Fellowes 11%

8-8

11/2 6/1 11/2

Finished a close third here last time, her best effort to date, beaten only 1½ lengths at this mark on going she handles; there could be more in the locker if stepped up in trip again. Lightly framed form figures but the upward curve is encouraging and she should not be dismissed.

AI verdict

Midfield 6/1 chance carries 8-8 with a modest Saturday Rating of 61 and patchy form figures of 578-63.

Clifford Lee 17%

James Tate 19%

134

9-2

22/1 16/1 20/1

Showed promise on debut when 6 lengths fourth at Redcar — not disgraced for an A'Ali filly who should be better suited to 5f than longer trips. Acts on good to firm and should improve on that initial effort; a mid-division shout in a large maiden field.

AI verdict

Long odds of 18/1 combined with a single form figure of 4 and top weight of 9-2 signal limited winning prospects despite a Saturday Rating of 134.

Consultation

Age 2 · 9-2

146

9-2

15/2 6/1 15/2

By Twilight Son out of a dam bred for 6/7f; ran similarly to her debut when 5 lengths third at Pontefract most recently, and top connections suggest she is worth another chance. Acts on good and AW; the market expected better last time but she is not without ability over this trip.

AI verdict

Middling Saturday Rating of 146, uninspiring form figures of 53, and 15/2 odds suggest the market lacks confidence in Consultation's prospects.

Age 2 · 9-2

—

Stevie Donohoe 12%

Charlie Fellowes 11%

127

9-2

28/1 14/1 28/1

Unraced Ardad filly out of Polight, a dam closely related to several winners; half-sister to a useful 6f performer and has reasonable pedigree credentials. Probably best kept in mind for future outings rather than backed on debut in a large field, though a debut run of note would not be a surprise.

AI verdict

Long odds of 22/1 and a heavy 9-2 weight undermine Crown Velocity's competitive Saturday Rating of 127.

Age 2 · 9-2

Joe Leavy 11%

Jack Jones 12%

149

9-2

9/1 8/1 17/2

Debut Showcasing filly out of Carolinae, a smart 7f performer, and half-sister to useful performers at 5f and 7f; the pedigree suggests eventual ability but a first-time effort in this large field makes her an unlikely mover. Probably needs the experience before showing her best.

AI verdict

Carrying 9-2 with an 8/1 market position and a Saturday Rating of 149 suggests mid-tier competitiveness without favourite backing.

Honeymoon Bear

Age 2 · 9-2

—

Jack Mitchell 16%

Joseph Parr 12%

—

125

9-2

33/1 28/1 33/1

Unraced Kodi Bear filly out of Beach Wedding, who was smart at 9f, and half-sister to a smart 6f performer and a useful 7f horse; a reasonably well-bred debut runner. A tough ask first time out in this company but the pedigree is credible and she should improve with racing.

AI verdict

Long odds of 33/1 and unknown form make Honeymoon Bear an outsider despite a Saturday Rating of 125.

Lady Rosalind

149

9-2

11/2 FCST 5/1

Unraced Starman filly out of a dam who was very smart at 6f as a juvenile, and half-sister to a very smart 8f performer; the breeding is attractive and the trainer has a strong record at this course. Not impossible on debut — one to keep an eye on in the market.

AI verdict

Mid-range Saturday Rating of 149 and 5/1 odds suggest market respect without strong form to justify higher confidence.

Romidijo

Age 2 · 9-2

830

Pierre-Louis Jamin 14%

Charlie Clover 21%

9-2

11/1 10/1 11/1

Below her best at Epsom last time, beaten 9 lengths in a tougher juvenile contest; drops back into calmer maiden waters now, acts on good ground and the trainer is in form. Bred for speed and given the easier company here, she can bounce back and run a much more representative race.

AI verdict

Romidijo's poor form (830), low Saturday Rating of 64, and 10/1 odds signal weak market confidence.

Jazzy Blue

Age 2 · 8-13

Paddy Bradley 9%

Charlie Fellowes 11%

8-13

5/1 4/1 9/2

Ran second at Leicester on her most recent outing, beaten 2 lengths to step up on her debut display; may have found 7f stretching last time and could do better back at 6f. Acts on good ground and should be competitive here, though more progress is needed to win.

AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 153 combined with competitive 4/1 market odds and manageable 8-13 weight offset modest 62 form to earn four stars.

Last Dandelion

Age 2 · 8-13

053

Sean Levey 13%

Stuart Williams 13%

8-13

11/1 10/1 11/1

Has been stepping up with each outing, finishing 2 lengths third at Lingfield most recently — a tidy return at this trip; acts on good and AW at 6f and could do well again here. Not the most exposed of the runners with a form line that is trending upwards.

AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 66, 10/1 odds, and poor form figures of 053 make Last Dandelion an unconvincing market outsider.

Age 2 · 8-13

Sean Dylan Bowen 11%

Philip McBride 13%

125

8-13

50/1 40/1 50/1

A Land Force filly who has struggled to find her footing in two starts, beaten 8 lengths at Nottingham last time; yet to find conditions that suit and needs considerably more over this trip. Hard to enthuse about based on current evidence.

AI verdict

Long-shot odds of 50/1 and poor form figures of 50 undermine a competitive Saturday Rating of 125 at 8-13.

Roberts Legacy

—

Lewis Edmunds 12%

Lemos De Souza 11%

127

8-13

33/1

A Space Blues filly out of an unraced dam who is closely related to winners; half-sister to a poor 5f performer, which is not an encouraging precedent. Likely to need the experience of debut racing before showing any worthwhile form — one to watch from the sidelines.

AI verdict

Long odds of 33/1 and unknown form undermine a promising Saturday Rating of 127 at 8-13.

Rocsane

Age 2 · 8-13

Silvestre De Sousa 14%

George Margarson 8%

—

151

8-13

15/2 6/1 15/2

Stepped up from her debut when beaten 2¼ lengths in third at Lingfield most recently; acts on AW at 6f and there should be further improvement to come on that upward trajectory. A threat to the selection if she continues to move forward.

AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 151 combines with manageable 8-13 weight and fair 6/1 odds, though form reading 53 prevents a fifth star.

Zigazig Ah

Age 2 · 8-13

Saffie Osborne 14%

Richard Spencer 15%

—

155

8-13

3/1 5/2 3/1

Came close to taking a maiden at Lingfield on her only start, beaten just half a length after clearly knowing her job on debut; acts on AW at 6f and that encouraging performance suggests she can go one better here. Our top-rated runner and the one to beat, though she has only the one run to her name.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 155 and recent runner-up form at 10/3 odds make Zigazig Ah a strong, if not dominant, market contender.

Gorgeous Mr George

Age 4 · 10-1

8-8881

Taryn Langley 10%

Dylan Cunha 13%

10-1

10/3 7/2 10/3

Course specialist who thrives here, particularly over this distance on a sound surface; landed a handicap at this track last time by over two lengths off a 3lb lower mark. He carries a modest penalty but the C&D form is compelling and our figures put him clear at the top.

AI verdict

Form figures of 8-8881 and a Saturday Rating of 80 suggest steady but unspectacular improvement, reflected in her 7/2 odds.

North View

Age 5 · 9-13

187407

Sean Levey 13%

Stuart Williams 13%

9-13

12/1

Recent turf outings have been weak — beaten 10 lengths at Newbury last time and well below the form he has shown on AW; the mark looks stiff on current grass evidence. First-time cheekpieces are a wild card and he acts on this surface, but a bounce-back of some magnitude is needed.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 65 and poor form figures of 187407 at 12/1 suggest limited winning prospects here.

Berry Clever

Age 5 · 9-11

332145

Silvestre De Sousa 14%

Chris Dwyer 14%

9-11

13/2 6/1 13/2

Landed a handicap here three starts back off a 4lb lower mark; handles this course, distance and going well and remains on the same mark now. Last two runs have been below that level, including a fifth beaten 4 lengths last time, so needs to find that earlier form again.

AI verdict

Consistent form (332145) and a solid Saturday Rating of 77 offset by 6/1 odds and non-favourite market status justify a mid-tier three stars.

Luzon Heights

Age 3 · 9-5

12-524

Cieren Fallon 18%

William Knight 14%

9-5

6/5 5/6 11/10

Fourth at Sandown last time beaten 3 lengths, a performance largely in line with his best; handles the trip well and acts on good ground. Our figures rate him as a clear danger and he could easily bounce back into contention, though course experience over this particular track is limited.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 69 and inconsistent form (12-524) undermine Luzon Heights despite even-money market support.

Peel Park

Age 3 · 9-4

06-675

Jack Mitchell 16%

Roger Varian 20%

9-4

6/1 13/2 5/1

Without a win in his last five starts but the Doncaster run last time flattered to deceive slightly — beaten just 1¼ lengths off this very mark and the form arguably more solid than the bare placing suggests. First-time blinkers on a mark that has been easing; trainer is in form and he should go close, though needs to find more.

AI verdict

Form figures of 06-675 and a 13/2 market price signal limited confidence in Peel Park's winning prospects here.

Kaori

Age 3 · 8-13

433-6

Jack Callan 14%

George Boughey 18%

8-13

12/1 10/1 12/1

Winless in her last four starts and our figures rank her last of the eight; beaten well at Lingfield last time when reportedly finding 10f too far, which led to that poor effort. The step back to a mile could help and she acts on the going, but a significant improvement is needed to threaten here.

AI verdict

Kaori's poor form (433-6), low Saturday Rating of 71, and 11/1 odds reflect limited winning chances against stronger market rivals.

Rokuni

Age 4 · 9-9

600-09

Joe Leavy 11%

Charlie Wallis 10%

9-9

25/1 FCST 22/1

Well beaten at Bath on most recent outing and has been out of form over the last five starts; the addition of a first-time tongue-tie and visor may help and he acts on the going, though a step up in trip is not certain to suit. Needs a significant change of fortune to be competitive.

AI verdict

Rokuni's dismal form of 600-09, long odds of 22/1, and low Saturday Rating of 22 signal minimal winning prospects.

Sunset In Paris

Age 8 · 9-9

03-994

Jonny Peate 9%

J. R. Jenkins 8%

9-9

16/1 14/1 16/1

Last seen pulled up in a hurdle, switching codes adds uncertainty; did run 3½ lengths placed in a classified race at another track on his penultimate Flat start and acts on AW. First-time cheekpieces added and 3lb below his last winning mark in this sphere, though he is inconsistent.

AI verdict

Rated just 31 with poor form of 03-994 and sent off a 14/1 outsider, Sunset In Paris offers minimal winning prospects.

Zafaan

Age 6 · 9-9

81555-

Pierre-Louis Jamin 14%

Charlie Clover 21%

9-9

9/4 7/4 9/4

Landed this race last year and knows the course; has been below that level since and was pulled up over hurdles most recently, so the Flat form clearly tailed off after that course success. Trainer in good form and first-time cheekpieces are applied — the question is whether he can rediscover the ability that landed this 12 months ago.

AI verdict

Zafaan's poor recent form (81555-) and low Saturday Rating of 53 make his 7/4 odds poor value at 9-9.

Hunting Berries

33/1 20/1 33/1

Little to work with across three starts, all well beaten and without finding conditions to show ability; first-time cheekpieces are the main angle but the form figures give scant cause for confidence. Probably needs more time to develop before she can be competitive at this level.

AI verdict

Hunting Berries carries 8-11 with a Saturday Rating of just 17, blank form of 0-00, and drifted to 28/1 in the market.

Ibiza Lights

Silvestre De Sousa 14%

8/1 7/1 15/2

Well beaten in her last four starts and carries a trainer who is out of form; visor applied first time but the form consistently reads poorly and she has yet to show much at this level. Returning from a 66-day absence makes backing her harder still.

AI verdict

Poor form (080-8) and a low Saturday Rating of 50 make 7/1 odds insufficient compensation for this outsider's consistent underperformance.

13/2 11/2 13/2

Has shown very little ability over 7f and 8f in recent starts and the form figures are consistently weak; a low-grade race and she needs a significant step up in her output to get involved. The better opportunities for her are likely to be in lower company.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 55 and poor recent form (005-8) limit confidence despite fair 11/2 odds and manageable 8-11 weight.

Produced a career-best effort last time, getting within 2¼ lengths in a classified race at Lingfield — his best run and a sign he may have found his ideal trip at 10f; acts on good ground. The first-time visor appears to have unlocked something and he could build on that performance here.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 60 and inconsistent form (60-092) at 8-11 weight limit the appeal despite competitive 6/4 market odds.

12/1 12/1 11/1

Performed to a similar level here last time, beaten around 4 lengths in a handicap on a course and distance he handles; needs to find more now and the form figures have been modest throughout. First-time cheekpieces may help sharpen him but our figures rank him last and a big uplift is required.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 66, poor form reading 3/5755, and 11/1 odds indicate the market holds little confidence in Red Hat Eagle.

Back in form after a quiet spell, with back-to-back placed efforts here over this distance on a surface he handles; placed in his last three outings, beaten only ¾ length last time here off a mark just 1lb lower. Winless in recent starts but this is a competitive mark and the consistent form makes him the one to beat.

AI verdict

Rated 80 on Saturday with solid 6232 form, but 10-0 weight and 3/1 market position limit confidence.

17/2 6/1 8/1

Ran to form here last time, beaten just over 2 lengths off a mark 1lb above today's — not disgraced but tended to be keen throughout; acts on this surface and trip but temperament is the key question. Returning from a 66-day break with first-time tongue-tie and needs to settle better to fulfil the ability he has shown.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-12 with a moderate Saturday Rating of 70, a weak form reading of 5354-5, and drifting odds of 13/2 undermine confidence.

16/1 10/1 14/1

Winless in his last five outings and was held comfortably at Kempton last time down in trip; back at a more suitable 7/8f and acts on AW but form on turf has been limited. The mark has been slipping but he continues to find reasons to disappoint — first-time cheekpieces are the angle to watch.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight 9-7 with weak 4-5045 form and a low Saturday Rating of 67 at 12/1 limits confidence.

4/1 6/1 7/2

Took a step forward at Lingfield last time, getting closer than before and beaten 3½ lengths off today's very mark; effective at 7/8f on a sound surface and probably at the right level. There are no concerns about conditions and he could go close from his first-draw position.

AI verdict

Raging Raj's mid-tier Saturday Rating of 79, inconsistent form of 12-763, and 6/1 odds reflect average prospects without market confidence.

Sean Levey 13%

10/1 7/1 10/1

Placed third at Kempton last time in a handicap over this trip, keeping on to be beaten 5 lengths — a solid if unspectacular return; just gets 7f and acts on AW, so the move to turf is a mild query. Consistent enough to be of interest and the late close suggests he could go well if conditions suit.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 76 and patchy form (2-3383) limit appeal despite 9-5 weight, making 17/2 odds fair rather than enticing.

Produced a career-best effort when beaten just half a length at Sandown last time off a mark 1lb lower than today's; acts on good ground at 7f and connections are in good form. Has scope to improve further and is feared as the main threat here — the half-length margin last time reads well in this company.

AI verdict

Kimbara's mid-table Saturday Rating of 82 and inconsistent form figures of 4462 justify a cautious 3/5 despite attractive 2/1 odds.

Winless in recent starts and was beaten 6½ lengths in a higher-grade race at Windsor last time — a tough ask that run; form has been inconsistent and acts at 6/7f on a sound surface. First-time cheekpieces and a drop back in class, but needs to find some consistency to feature.

AI verdict

Rated just 62 with weak 2-5549 form and a 18/1 market dismissal, Ecclefechan carries top weight of 9-4 with little justification.

Largely consistent performer who returned from a 53-day break to be beaten just half a length at Kempton last time, handling the trip and going well; acts at 7/8f on good to firm and AW. Our top-rated runner — goes up only 1lb and the form puts her right in the mix here.

Landed a race at Windsor three starts ago off a mark 11lb lower; has run with credit at 5-6f since and acts on most ground. Last time out she was below her best stepping up to 6f and beaten 4 lengths off today's mark — the key is whether she can bounce back to that earlier winning level.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 10-0 with a modest Saturday Rating of 74 and inconsistent form (8-0124) limits Cameley Days' appeal at 4/1.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-11 with a modest Saturday Rating of 69 and uninspiring form of -50225 limits confidence despite fair 5/1 odds.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with a modest Saturday Rating of 83 and inconsistent form of 3-2317 limits confidence despite 5/2 odds.

First-time tongue-tie applied and our figures rate her highly — could go close if the headgear has the desired effect.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 72 and inconsistent form (4533) at 9-2 weight justify mid-tier appeal despite fair 7/2 odds.

A veteran well below his last winning mark but put in his better recent effort here last time, beaten 3 lengths in fourth; acts at 5/6f on a sound surface and the C&D form is the main positive. First-time tongue-tie and he rates ahead on our figures, though he needs more to suggest a win is forthcoming.

5/1 3/1 5/1

Was below form when well beaten here last time but had run a close third on the penultimate start and acts at 5/6f on a sound surface, preferring AW. Off a short break with first-time cheekpieces; inconsistency is the concern but is below his last winning mark and capable on his day.

AI verdict

Inconsistent form (125838) and a low Saturday Rating of 46 make 9/2 odds unappealing for this 9-9 weighted runner.

7/2 3/1 10/3

Out of form across his last five starts and returning from a 165-day absence, which is a significant question mark; acts at 6/7f on fast ground but needs a return to form. The fast ground here could be beneficial and a bounce back is not impossible, but a lot to take on trust.

AI verdict

Valadero's mid-range Saturday Rating of 55, moderate 10/3 odds, and inconsistent form figures of 506-78 justify a cautious 3-star assessment.

10/3 3/1 11/4

Down the field again at this course on most recent outing and the form has been consistently weak across five starts; first-time cheekpieces are the hook but the evidence suggests she is yet to find suitable conditions. Hard to recommend at this stage.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 59 and poor form figures of 77-660 make 10/3 odds unconvincing for this 2-star selection.

7/2

Has been unable to beat a rival in three maiden starts here and the form figures are discouraging; likely to need more time and better conditions before she can compete. Off a short break but returns to the same course where she has repeatedly struggled.

AI verdict

Shining Guest's poor form (67-6), modest Saturday Rating of 57, and 4/1 odds reflect limited winning prospects here.

9-2

10/1 7/1 9/1

Consistently poor over four starts, the trainer is out of form and the form figures offer nothing encouraging; beaten well at Ripon last time in a handicap. Hard to see her troubling the leaders here.

AI verdict

Form reading 070-9 and a Saturday Rating of just 46 leave Wondrous a 10/1 outsider with little evidence of competitiveness.
